I looked it up just for fun. It is now called Ctt. Jim Elmore (Ctt. Dixie Jewels x C. Pumpkin Festival). It is solid red with a nice form. Good one Bert!

Sounds like the perfect valentine for an orchid lover, Bert. Nice gift!

Now, my valentine is a geeky engineer, anybody got an idea for a valentine tool or gadget? Oh, he also buys everything he wants for himself.

Most of us are brothers! Whistling I gave my wife a nice, mushy anniversary card this morning and will take her out to one of our nicer restaurants tonight.

Ooo, Carol I just love the peachy one, is that Victoria Kam 'fascination' ?

My Gerberara Snow Ballet from you has a new spike coming along even though the poor plant is looking rather pitiful. Will grow it back to 'weed' status next summer!

Elaine, No the lavender one is Victoria Kam 'fascination'.
I must say they may have to go outside. In my tiny living room the scent of those two is getting a bit overwhelming. Big Grin

I'm Stuck at home with PayPal clicking away. I just bought Den Enoboli purple'Splash' from Normans Orchids.(I know better but that's the only place I could find it!) I reserve the right to c/o later! I really wanted to buy some Aussie but where are they for sale? The crosses are so new, well I haven't tried Fred Clarke yet.
